Thanks! 2 points up going into last event which is at more of a Miata track, New Hampshire Motor Speedway (South Oval config).

If I were to start tracking my car after supercharging, I think I would try to introduce some additional cooling in the form of a distilled water mist directly into the intercooler/radiator/air conditioning condenser stack during mid to high RPMs. It wouldn't be too difficult to set up.
My approach would be to see how it goes with the stock cooling. If oil and coolant temps remain in check, I wouldn't bother...

I did notice that when I was installing my intercooler that the upper 1/3 of the radiator was very clean compared to the lower 2/3, as if air wasn't passing through it. Probably due to the design of the grille and the crash bar behind it. This might be a safer and inexpensive alternative that you could consider for those hot track days.
As I think about it, my *first* mod would be to vent the hood, which should improve cooling while reducing front lift. Hell maybe I should do that anyway, it's a zero-point mod with my club!
